Summary

Excludes every day from April 9, 2025, through September 30, 2025, from counting as a “calendar day” when calculating the statutory time period that applies to a congressional joint resolution to terminate the national emergency declared on April 2, 2025. In practice, this pauses the statutory countdown for that termination resolution during those dates, effectively extending the time before the statutory period runs its course. The change is procedural, narrowly targeted, and does not provide funding or create new programs.

• Every day from April 9, 2025, through September 30, 2025, is excluded from counting as a "calendar day" for computing the statutory period for a joint resolution terminating the April 2, 2025 national emergency.
• The exclusion pauses the statutory countdown, effectively lengthening the time available under the statute for actions related to the termination resolution.
• The change is narrowly targeted to a single national emergency declaration and a single statutory timing calculation.
• No new funding, programs, or substantive changes to emergency authorities are created by this legislation.
• Federal agencies and governments relying on emergency authorities may experience the practical continuation of emergency status while the excluded days do not count toward the termination timetable.
• The measure is procedural and time-limited, applying only to the specified date range in 2025.
• It does not impose new duties or unfunded mandates on states or localities.
• The legislation does not change how a joint resolution is enacted or the political processes for termination—only how certain calendar days are counted.
